Looking for bands like....
 

I have recently got into bands like AMBEON and MIDNATSOLL, I suppose you could call them GOTH METAL, but regular posters know my feelings on sub genres! anyhow I am looking for similar bands that still retain that melodic sensibility. I love atmosphere so any bands and links appreciated!

Virgin Black. Click the link in my sig.

Cheers for that. I know albumbase very well by now!

Great site. I'm constantly using it to give links to people here, and plugging it, but no one seems to notice...

^what do you want, a medal?

*Sigh*

Based on the two bands you mentioned, I think you'd really like, in fact I'm certain you'd enjoy: Draconian, Beseech, Forever Slave, Lake of Tears, Leaves' Eyes, Celestial Crown(sort of hard to find, at least for me, I had to order the CD from Ebay).

Therion is a bit more rock-based and less classical, but the elements are still there, and you might like them.

If you're into strange stuff, I suggest checking out Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows. Its just.....different.

Thanks. I will check them out.

^btw, i just edited because my browser was being ghey and wouldn't let me finish my post.

EDIT ONCE AGAIN: Also After Forever and Tristania you might like.

*bump* *double post*
You ever check out those bands? Draconian "Slumber did my Spirit Seal" and "Morningstar" I recommend the most.
